Darts Darts Darts......

Description

altogether 12 of them. Found this pattern in an old magazine (1964) and just had to try it ! As soon as I’d figured out how this works, it was really easy, despite all the darts. Didn’t need a zipper, because my material was stretchy.

thank you Mary ! You will be pleased to hear, I have started this pattern on a more solid fabric (a sort of brown pine stripe) and it is looking good. Will be taking pictures of it as soon as I’ve ironed it :-))
